World Alzheimer’s Month

Posted August 8th, 2016

September is World Alzheimer’s Month and incorporates World Alzheimer’s Day on 21 September. During September the Foundation will join this international campaign to raise awareness and reflect on the impact of the disease.

Currently more than 1,800 Australian’s are diagnosed with dementia every week.

Worldwide, someone is diagnosed with dementia every 3 seconds.

This disease will affect a greater number of people as the years pass. We need a major medical breakthrough.

We will be holding various events and sharing the latest in Alzheimer’s research.

Public Lectures – Wednesday 14th September

Join the researchers who fight for memories at an update on the latest in Alzheimer’s disease research. One morning and one evening lecture will be held with the information duplicated at each one. There is no charge to attend these lectures but a booking is required.
